Kent Boys Crew

Famous quotes containing the words kent, boys and/or crew:

    Main Street was never the same. I read Gide and tried to
    translate Proust. Now nothing is real except French wine.
    For absurdity is reality, my loneliness unreal, my mind tired.
    And I shall die an old Parisian.
    —Conrad Kent Rivers (1933–1968)

    And here we have that splendid family
    I never ran to when I got depressed,
    The boys all biceps and the girls all chest....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Nor aught availed him now
    To have built in heav’n high tow’rs; nor did he scape
    By all his engines, but was headlong sent
    With his industrious crew to build in hell.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
